Re: Cohen Film Collection
in the Benoit Jacquot trilogy : I've seen a very short clip (but who wouldn't notice this?) from Emmanuelle Béart in the bathroom in "L'Enfer" (Chabrol) as well as a very short clip of "Betty".
I hope that these 2 will came out via Cohen on Blu-Ray very soon

Re: Cohen Film Collection
Loulou is the Depardieu that I've anticipated the most since the acquisition announcement. I wouldn't be surprised if they chose all the Depardieu features for that volume then. Police, Loulou, and especially Satan are all stellar performances it'd certainly make sense.

Don't forget Le Garcu! Though I assume it's still a licensing nightmare.Jean-Luc Garbo wrote:Loulou is the Depardieu that I've anticipated the most since the acquisition announcement.

Re: Cohen Film Collection
I would love to see The House in the Woods and Le Garçu receive English friendly releases. Can anyone shed any light on the licensing nightmare's keeping them from wider release?

Re: Cohen Film Collection
I don't know the full details of the Le Garcu hold-up, but its inclusion in the Gaumont Integrale sets was a very expensive 'once and never again' special arrangement. The producer commented to this effect in an interview I read (but don't remember where). It may just be yet another case of a sales agent having totally unrealistic financial expectations, and holding the film hostage to them.Gaddis wrote:I would love to see The House in the Woods and Le Garçu receive English friendly releases.

I don't think there's any real obstacle to The House in the Woods. It was a standard TV production (ORTF / RAI) and it's been reissued in France. The obstacles here are will and economics. Pialat has never been a big name abroad, this is his least known work, and it's seven hours long. Fortunately, there's a serviceable transfer, but it's still an almighty gamble for any English-language label, who seem to be struggling to make even Van Gogh pay its way.

Re: Cohen Film Collection
Thanks for the reply. Sad to hear that Le Garçu has been effectively Eustached.
It was actually Rivette's comments that piqued my interest in The House in the Woods: "I would put Van Gogh (1991) and The House in the Woods (1971) above all his other films. Because there he succeeded in filming the happiness, no doubt imaginary, of the pre-WWI world. Although the tone is very different, it’s as beautiful as Renoir."

On the other hand I would suggest that the first 20 minutes represents one of the top updated Simenon adaptations to date.domino harvey wrote:Sweet, Betty's not very good but the other two are among Chabrol's best

Re: Cohen Film Collection
Woo-boy I couldn't disagree more, BETTY is pretty close to a masterpiece in my eyes. Both Trintignant and Audran here are two of the strongest performances in all of Chabrol I feel, particularly the latter in her last collaboration with the director, all the more poignant in a role all about aging and death.domino harvey wrote:Sweet, Betty's not very good but the other two are among Chabrol's best
L'ENFER is very good, but I don't think it gets any more screamingly mediocre than THE SWINDLE.
Nonetheless, exciting release!

Rien ne va plus is Chabrol's To Catch a Thief-- light, airless, and sublime.
